Today is the day Verizon comes and I get trapped into their monopoly
(FIOS). I have given up on getting Comcast to fix things or reduce
their prices. With Verizon I have 3 digital boxes, faster internet,
more channels of nothing on, and it all costs me $45 a month LESS than
comcast. After they get the majority of us trapped in their monopoly, I
am expecting the prices to rise but $45 is a ways to go. It will
ultimately result in Comcast dropping their price.
Anyway, enough soap box:
Later today the internet switch over will occur. It may OR MAY NOT go
smoothly. If it does, I will be on the teamspeak conference. If it
does not go smoothly, I will not. I would suggest that we could use the
Meet Me line (it is Tuesday) but when my cable goes out, so does my
phone. That is the nature of a monopoly is it not?
